Gravel deflector

[TheFireman]

Do they make a gravel deflector for the 2015 35UN? My jeep windshield is taking a beating.

Yes they do, I had one installed by the dealer. Mine was about $400.Works great.

What kind?

[TheFireman]

Precept 35UN

[TheFireman]

What brand Wilcut?

[Wilcut]

Looks like "Smart Solutions" Ultra Guard 03-134 94"x 16"x 3/8" thick. Dealer installed. Labor a little high but I guess they have to eat also.

Wilcut... What model RV do you have? My 35UN has no bumper and is about 23 inches high at the back

[Wilcut]

35UN. Attached to underside with, looks like, angle iron or some material.

Can you post a pic or give location? How far from axle or receiver? I'm thinking of putting one on my 35UN which should be same as yours outside. Did they bolt angle piece directly to frame or hang with chain?

Thanks for info

[Wilcut]

Checked yesterday and the guard is attached to a piece of angle iron that is welded to the frame rails about 10-12" from the rear of the coach.

I probably should (and eventually will) get the gravel guard, but in the meantime I'm using Road Wrap for the tow car and will probably put on the Precept this summer.

Tried it on our April trip and while a bit of hassle to put on the first time, it did keep the nose of the car and side mirrors very clean underneath. Manufacturer says it will help again potential gravel & rock chips, but we'll see this summer.

Do you guys prefer the brush shields or the rubber deflectors? Also, I have no bumper and will mount to frame. My precept goes up at the back. How far do I mount behind axle?
